Proves yet again that the step up to the big league is a step too far. Did he actually play today. The little man looked like a boy amongst men.


Nice little second tier provincial player and that's it.


MOM Kurandrani showed how it is meant to be at 13 with pace skill and above all physicality

 Look I don't rate him anything more than a decent Super Rugby player, he has some pace and skill on attack.


But it is hard to criticise a player When your backline is exclusively New Zealanders and Slade and Saili is missing you every time.


The only way he was going to get possession was going for an intercept.


Count how many rucks he was under the first two to secure the ball.

He was awol as he was against England at the same venue. Average player who is not up to it physically. Only effective in space

I agree with you -  De Jongh goes missing from games and I have serious reservations about him on Super 15 level as well/   A decent enough player on CC level - but he does not seem to be able to perform satisfacotrily on higher elvel.

 The idea he is a Bok center is a bad joke.  Hopefully this match will settle the issue.

 He is simply too small. Had he been 7 to 10 kg heavier he would have been ideal
